Results on 1 December 2018 Southampton 2-2 Manchester United

*Read our live report here!

Southampton held Manchester United to an exciting, anxious draw in the late Premier League kick off at St Mary's Stadium on Saturday.

Stuart Armstrong opened the scoring on 12 minutes when he zeroed in on the bottom left-hand corner with a thumping strike, after taking Michael Obafemi's smart pass.

A scarcely believable second followed soon after.

Marcus Rashford's clumsy foul gave the Saints a tasty free kick that Cedric Soares curled gorgeously into the top left-hand corner.

But Romelu Lukaku took advantage of the ball falling kindly to whack in United's opener on 33 minutes.

And Ander Herrera was the beneficiary of Marcus Rashford's industry six minutes later, finishing classily through his own legs from close range to level.

Both sides traded blows after half time, with Mark Hughes' hosts often looking the more likely to force a winner.

But the under-performing pair must settle with a point apiece.

Manchester City 3-1 Bournemouth

The resistance lasted 16 minutes before Asmir Begovic's save from Leroy Sane fell into the path of Bernardo Silva, who smashed home.

But Bournemouth are made of sturdy stuff and took advantage of a good spell to pull level just before half time.

Callum Wilson met a Simon Francis cross with a hooping header that found the net despite keeper Ederson getting a hand to it.

City retook the lead when Raheem Sterling, moments after striking the post with a brilliant solo effort, forcedin when the Cherries failed to clear their lines.

And Ilkay Gundogan provided the much-needed breathing space when he tucked into Sane's pull-back in the 79th minute.

Crystal Palace 2-0 Burnley

Crystal Palace came away wondering how they hadn't scored double figures against Burnley at Selhurst Park.

James McArthur fluked the Eagles into the lead when his cross evaded everyone, including Clarets keeper Joe Hart, before going in off the post on 16 minutes.

That the difference remained a single goal defied belief as the Londoners ran riot, especially when Wilfried Zaha crashed a curling shot off the crossbar.

But Andros Townsend removed any lingering doubts when he cut in from the right before whistling a supreme strike into the top left-hand corner.

Huddersfield 1-2 Brighton

Ten-man Huddersfield collapsed to defeat at home to Brighton on Saturday.

The Terriers scored the fastest EPL goal of the season when Mathias Jorgensen bundled in with his head after just 59 seconds.

But their afternoon took a turn for the awkward when Steve Mounie was sent off for a wretched challenge on Yves Bissouma.

And Shane Duffy rose highest to level the scores on the stroke of half time, picking out the bottom corner.

Florin Andone completed the turnaround when he nodded in Solly March's cross.

Leicester 2-0 Watford

Leicester continued their encouraging form with a strong home win over Watford in the Premier League.

Marksman Jamie Vardy was flattened by on rushing keeper Ben Foster before thumping in the penalty to break the deadlock on 11 minutes.

James Maddison then made it two after controlling beautifully on the edge of the box before flummoxing a pair of visiting defenders.

Etienne Capoue was sent off for the visitors late on after a hefty challenge.

Newcastle 0-3 West Ham

Newcastle saw their winning run go up in smoke at the hands of West Ham at St James' Park.

Javier Hernandez poached atrademark, close-range opener in the 11th minute with the home defence snoozing.

The Mexican doubled his tally midway through the second period when he ran off the last man before slotting inside the near post.

Felipe Anderson added the gloss with his injury time third.
